(Kessler Foundation) Dr. Andrew Houtenville: "The modest increase in the labor force participation rate is also a good sign, compared to the decrease we saw last month. It suggests that workers are staying engaged in the labor force, meaning they are employed, on temporary layoff, or actively looking for work. While the numbers are positive, caution is warranted. There are many factors that could affect recovery over the next few months, including the possibility of a second wave of COVID-19."
